Hey all, thought you'd might like to see my latest exterior mod....painted wheel wells!
(Not that you've seen my other mods along the way, as I only started posting to this forum in the last week, despite having owned since early '04)
My father-in-law tells me this used to be fairly popular detail job, way back when...apprently they even started making red fender wells as an option for the GTO. I've never seen it before, but it sounded sweet and I thought it would tie in nicely with the stripes, so we went ahead and did it.
Being a fan of auto detailing, he said he certainly wouldn't mind seeing this make a comeback ... ...after completing mine, I agree! (Although rarity is also good.)
Feedback welcome...
Also, my fuel filler door was starting to fade (was original tidal wave blue), so I needed to repaint it. I figured I'd give that a shot as white too. Any thoughts here?
(this was while it was still up in the air after painting, starting to put the wheel back on)
